>Reptilia includes four living clades: Crocodilia (crocodiles and alligators), Sphenodontia (tuataras), Squamata (lizards and snakes), and Testudines (turtles).
Bird is not reptile. But it is a dinosaur.
The word "reptile" comes from a Greek root meaning a thing that creeps. That's why creeping plant species are often have the species name "reptans".
It is what it is.
It's a reptile in the Linnaean usage. Since dinosaurs are/were reptiles along with archosaurs and that's where birds come from. The funny part is the idiots who didn't even get the joke and said shit like dog or arachnid.
The average owl over the course of a year eats several times more rodents than the most successful ratting cat in history (towser, who was locked in a brewery’s stores, and was born into a world with a mouse problem and left it as they found it, still with a mouse problem)
They are one of the few animals, the others being foxes and terriers, capable of causing local rodent extinctions.
This is my least favorite sarcopterygian. The next time some fucking retard hits you with the "non-avian dinosaur" bullshit, make sure you let them know you only listen to non-human sarcopterygians.
>their younglings are hideous tho
No they are not ! Owl chicks are extremely cute and soft !
When frightened, and taken at a disadvantageous angle, they can certainly seem strange at first glance.
But a second look is all it takes to realize what magnificent animals they are.
What's more, if you're lucky enough to see baby owls on a branch or in a nest, it can only be good news, as they eat a lot of rodents, which are vectors of dreadful diseases !
clearly an amphibian
Does flying count as crawling on the air?

It's true in the same way that mammals are synapsids. So you don't really need to worry about it.
